["how much time has passed?"]
laurits is asking himself for a millionth time the same question. he died on earth and came to this place. this place is nothing more then black space spreading infinitely in all directions.
for the first time he came into this place he thought he was still alive and will reincarnated back again with his memories erased. but nothing happened. even after a long time passed. he then started to recollect his life. form the first time he could remember after birth.
time passed, he got bored and tried many other things. he started to try sensing qi may be he could cultivate just like he did before death. it didn't work out. no matter how many times he tried he couldn't even feel an stand of qi.
time passed, he thought if qi is not present then some other kind of energy must be present. so he started to feel and sense other type of energies. it took very long period of time untill he could feel a power totally different from qi.
unlike qi which could be cultivated by meditation. this new energy didn't even increase one bit no matter how much he tried. untill he could feel same kinda energy from the surroundings. he started to move around and collecting this new energy.
time passed, he gave up trying to know more about this new energy. he doesn't know how much time passed. he started to fear he would be in this place for all eternity. he then started to try different things and the only thing he that had some reaction was the new energy he started to cultivate.
at first he was happy to see some thing work. he started gathering the new energy and mixing with his own until he started to feel something bad would happen if he continued. after thinking for a long time. he decided to stop cultivating the new energy.
["how much time has passed?"]
the same question he asking himself. he doesn't even know how many times he did. he was bored. he thought and decided to start cultivating the new energy again even tho everytime he was getting bad foreboding. he decided he will risk it all.
just when he was about to start cultivating. he felt a force form his center. pulling himself inside him self. he wasn't new to this. it happened once after his death when last time it happened he came to this place. now it's happening again.
[I am finally leaving this place]
this was his finally thoughts before he got pulled inside him by this force.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[welcome to the higher wo***. something is not right.]
that is first thing laurits heard after gaining consciousness. he look forward. he can see a person aged between 23-26. he was wearing a silky robes with gold linings. laurits was so happy that he could have cried but he couldn't just like in the place before. when he recollected that the person spoke something to him. he totally ignored it and asked back
[are you real? I am alive again?]
the person facing him. narrowed his eyes and spoke again
[yes, iam real. as for your second question. no you are not alive yet. I know what you want to know. you died and came to limbo to wait till you are reborn in the same world you lived before you died as everyone. but there are some special happenings when someone breaks though their soul limit. they are tested to have chance to be born in the higher world. and you are one of the special happenings.]
laurits heard and thought for some time and asked again
[is it normal for one to wait for such a long time?]
as laurits already expected something like this he didn't feel shock but he couldn't help but doubt if it is normal for one to wait who know how much time he waited.
[yes, for the special case. that was the one out of two test to endure the passage of time to certain limit. next test is one's sanity which you are already passed by now have such a clear thinking and conversation with me. you can reborn now. but before you can reborn. I would like some answers as well in return I will answer your one each. a fair trade.]
laurits afraid a little when he hear that he passed the test just in time. otherwise he didn't know what would have happened if he continued cultivating that new energy. laurits said
[okay, you can ask me.]
the person nodded. and started speaking again.
[we are present in higher world right now. I am rolwed, a leymen, a person who tests and send people from lower to higher world's. generally I get information from of the person who I am about to test. I got your information too. but you do not match with the information contained. it was given that you barely pass to elevate from base world to lower world. but you know have soul limit to reborn in the higher world. tell me what did you do to increase you soul limit?]
laurits was stunned for a moment but remembered the new energy. he started to cultivate. that was the only thing that mattered of all the things he done in the limbo. he hesitate to decide either to tell the truth or not. untill he decided to tell the truth.
[when I was in the limbo I was bored and tried different types of thing. just like in my previous life where I get to sense qi after some incidents I sensed a new time of energy. but this energy is completely different from qi from my previous life. where it can't be cultivated from movie qi in a manner but it can only be cultivated from absorbing the energy present in the surroundings.]
rolwed widened his eyes. he couldn't believe what he was listening. soul can only be felt by higher beings. not only this being born not even in the lower world. but in a base world. sensed soul power and even in limbo at that.
this had never happened before. that's not even it but he elevated his soul by inventing a soul cultivating for himself. he wanted to say it's not possible but he know that laurits isn't lying.
[you are not normal. follow me]
laurits was stunned. he thought he could ask a question after answering. but by the looks of rolwed. it has to wait. he started following rolwed in the form of wisp which was the from he was in from the limbo.
after sometime they came before a palace. rolwed taped on the palace gates and whispered something then they were directly teleported into room where a person sat on the throne. laurit felt strong soul power from this person. he was puzzled for a second and tried to sense soul power from rolwed.
he couldn't even feel a thing. he thought either rolwed has no soul power or he was hiding his soul power. the person on the throne look at the duo and spoke.
[I am denblo. I need to see your memories. so don't fight it]
laurits was confused. what is denblo saying about? what he should not fight? just as he was about to ask. he started to feel massive amount of soul power entering him. he felt very uncomfortable but didn't fight it. it took nothing but a few seconds for the uncomfortable feeling to disappear.
denbol closed his eyes for a second and reopened them. he was stunned just as rolwed when laurits told the truth. but unlike rolwed who just know very little about laurits. denbol knew almost everything about laurits after seeing his memories.
[touch this stone and try sensing the energy present in it]
denbol got to know that laurits sensed life force as well as soul force and he himself created cultivating techniques and already started cultivating. he was curious if laurits can sense mana as well. so he gave him a mana stone.
laurits was puzzled again but did as he was told. as soon as the stone touched him he tried to sense either of qi or the new energy that is soul energy from the stone. but he didn't feel anything. he then started to clear his mind and started to empty all senses. it was his trick that he used when he first sensed qi and soul force. but unlike qi and soul force which were present inside him. mana was present out side his body and that too in a stone. so it didn't work.
laurits thought for few minutes before sending part his consciousness into the stone with his soul force. after clearing his thoughts in the mini consciousness he started to sense a new type of force which is again different from both qi and soul force.
this new forced is very physically tangible. just as he was about to try to use this new force. denblo cleared his consciousness in the stone and took back the stone.
[true geniu**]
[no he is a genius above genius compared in ruleworld.]
rolwed spoke just to be corrected by denblo.
